OLD school. I found a double cassette deck and plugged a simple walkman headphone/microphone to the deck. I then recorded 4 tracks bouncing and recording and ended up with 4 tracks dry no effects  very raw  but fun and reminded me of the fun in the early days with tape recorders

Miracletone

not sure how it worked but I played a track and recorded myself singing in one take yelling into the macbook pro using audacity. I found having my face about 2 feet away gave the best soso mix. i think its in Mono

I Saw Her Standing There Yelling In A Macbook Pro

testing out a bass a put together from parts from Lowes hardware.. and some pups and tuners

testing my homemade fretless Bass concocktion

got an axe 2 the other day and was working on some ambient shimmer sounds. Used open D tuning and was just trying to find the notes

Axe2 shimmer test  S-night sort of

79 start through a axe fx2 to box ac30. dry amp sound then with delay. Blocks used were delay with modulation and for the shimmer path a plexishift delay. Drive is from the amp  this was recorded with a edirol r9 sitting in the middle of my living room so its sort of low fi. meaning not the best capture..it sounds a bit thin


Axe2 test w vox ac30

Liquid Foots Liquid Tracks using the built in add preamp for guitar. The backing track is played through the Liquid tracks at the same time lined out to computer using audacity.  My chain was guitar/LT preamp out to dd20 out to 65 box pacemaker. Only issue was I had the preamp before the delay I prob should have done it the other way around

Liquid Tracks sdd3000 preamp test

vox ac30 at gig vol  I think theres a bit too much drive here but it works live maybe not for recording though

vox ac30 dry test take 2

I changed the key to this song to suit my playing..It was just easier in C#min rather than E min. I used a 79 strat and my Rickenbacker

U2 Drowning man improv

ehh  Im finding it hard to tone match cleaner sounds.

U2 Bad UF album version Tonematched axe2

didn't use the tone match block as I couldn't get a decent reference tone..I think it could use more drive..Im trying for that rip pin nasty tele ac30 tone

THE ALARM- sold me down the river TELE tone
